Trust us, future you is stoked that today you is making good life decisions.

And while we’re here, may we suggest that the weird ni**le that you’ve been fighting through for a few weeks is way less likely to be part of your race day if you tackle it head-on now instead of pretending it isn’t real?

Sincerely,

A crew of clinicians on a mission to make all your race day dreams come true! 👊

We’ve all been in that moment late in a run where the wheels are falling off, your legs weigh at least 628 pounds, and you know that “shuffle” is the only way to describe your stride.

Instead of relying on hope and prayer to get you through those moments, here are a few key strategies to fend off those exhausted legs and run stronger for longer. 🙌

🤸Ready to share the joy of running with your little athlete?

Our Kids Running Program (ages 6-12) is where young runners discover the joy of collective movement!

Every Sunday morning, we create a space where kids can run at their own pace, play engaging games, and build lifelong friendships—all while developing strong movement foundations.

We prioritize fun over competition, ensure that a variety of abilities are supported and emphasize long-term athlete development to ensure every activity meets the unique needs of growing bodies and minds.

Sunday mornings just got a whole lot more exciting! Swipe to learn more about our 6-week sessions at Rawlinson Community School Field.

Questions? DM us or check our link in bio for more details!

Financial assistance available for families who need it—because every child deserves access to quality movement programs. 💙🧡

📣 Running is essentially controlled falling; hopping from one foot to the next while fighting gravity with every step. The better you resist that gravitational pull, the more efficient your stride becomes.

Enter your quads: your body’s built-in shock absorbers and braking system. But they only work effectively if you train them properly.

And if you do, you stand to gain:

• Reduced impact on your knees and hips
• Less energy needed to maintain your pace ⚡️
• Capacity to run longer before those quads start to question your life decisions!

Swipe through for key strategies to strengthen your quads. We promise it doesn’t have to be complicated to be game-changing!
